Harmonics just announced they were making a new game. I'm willing to bet MS exclusive

I expect it nearly all to be multiplats just on MS stage as its first and will largely be on the other companies reels as well.

I am quite interested in the Capcom and Square reveals. In fact anything coming from Japanese developers on MS stage is HUGE. But I am fearing all of these will just be multiplats with maybe a few added kinect functionalities like we saw last year with Mass Effect 3 and Ghost Recon.

Lets hope not, bring on the exclusives.

It has been confirmed that they will all be showing multiplat games except Harmonix, which will be revealing Dance Central 3. Oh and Capcom which will show Steel battalion.

Multiplats. Next Splinter Cell possibly is a timed exclusive for Xbox but that's about it.

I got excited like you, but then remembered that Steel Battalion releases next month and that Sleeping Dogs and Tomb Raider are technically from Square Enix.

as more multi-plat announcements, as less own games or exclusives. those news are always bad news for me, i don't need to see multi-plat games at sony/microsoft/nintendo media briefings. just imagine the same time for the briefing without multi-plat games. damn that would be great news

Yea sadly :(

But really why the heck would MS be beating a dead horse? From the demo of SB and what we have got so far from Kinect, Steel Batallion just does not work. The game could have been great with a full blown mech control but it just sucks with the Kinect.

Tomb Raider was shown last year, I don't know if they would show the exact same game again this year. I didn't even know a game called Sleeping Dogs existed.

Either way things don't seem to be looking up, especially when I regained some lost hope in MS. Incidentally I find it interesting that Activision is not part of the announced 3rd parties on stage. Does that mean BO2 won't be on MS stage and MS didn't renew the COD contract?
